Keep in mind that all syrup appears real thick when refrigerated.
There is a formula to calculate exactly how much water to add to "too thick" syrup, but I'm assuming you don't have a syrup hydrometer.?
Also, You really don't even need to bring it to a boil and refilter if you keep it refrigerated. Just add some water and stir.
